Why should I have my body fat measured? What’s the best method?

When you exercise and you feel you are losing weight but to know whether you are losing fat or muscle, measuring body fat is essential. A simple thing I want to share here is, always check your store points in your body where fat generally gets stored first and lose at its end. For females generally store points are tummy, hips, thighs, and triceps and for the average male its tummy. So the tummy is the best part of your body where you can check whether you are losing fat or muscle which tells you whether your nutrition and workout is proper or you are going on the wrong track. The best method is, Pinch your skin i.e. 4 fingers from your naval line and check the thickness before you start your workout regime, and check again after 15-20 days in your weight-loss duration, if the thickness of the skin is the same then something is wrong, it means you are losing muscle not fat. When you lose skin’s thickness without losing your overall weight it means you are on the right track of losing fat. This is the simplest and easiest way of measuring whether you are losing fat or muscle.
